[C320-list] Fuel polishing/fuel tank cleaning

Does anyone have their fuel tank cleaned and the fuel "polished"? If so how often?

Has anyone ever had an engine failure due to water or debris getting to the injectors?

How much faith do you put in the Rancor fuel filter removing any water from the fuel? What size filter do you use? 10 micron or 2? Other?

Sorry for all the questions. But I am interested in what others do and their experiences in fuel management. Calder is very serious on fuel cleanliness. However, my sailing neighbours seem unconcerned and no one I know has ever done a tank cleaning/fuel polishing here. I had two quotes for servicing my 20 gallon tank. $1100-$1200 Cdn or about $900 US.

Thanks,
