I had that problem last summer. What I found out was there was a small leak in one of the SS braided lines coming from one of the fuel tanks to the filter. It would work once I got everything primed for a while but then after I parked the boat it would loose a prime again. What was happening is the hole was soo small it would suck air in but not leak fuel out. I did not end up finding it until the hole got big enough to leak fuel.
