If this is the first time, there is a possibility there is water in the fuel due to condensation forming over the winter. Pull the Racor filter and check for water. If so, drain as much as you can, then dump some fuel treatment into the tank and run the engine for an hour or so. Should be effective and solve the problem. Might be a good time to replace the filter element as well.

Engine started right up. Motored out of harbor for two hours. Turned engine off for a while waiting for wind. Started back up. Ran for 15-30 sec and died. Started up and ran for a bit longer then died. Pulled bed to get access and fuel pressure and level in racor look fine. Started up and ran fine for 40 min. WTF?
