Fuel Pump?

Went to pull the boat out of the slip at our local marina and after getting the engine started it keep shutting off several times I found out that if I kept pumping the prime blub after the engine started I could keep the motor running would this be a fuel pump problem thanks for any suggestions
 
Thanks I checked the lines and get not see anything that would give me a thought of a leak so pump here i come not sure how hard it is to chance but I will find out thanks everyone
 
You didn't mention what type of engine do you have . Do you have carburetors. If so they could be gummed up .
 
Just was thinking, if this was the first time to crank to boat up this season, you may need to rebuild the carbs. If gas was left in the engine all winter, you will need to have the carbs cleaned.
