Fuel pump Question

[Gary H NC]

After my first run of the season i was doing some inspection on the engine today and checking things over.
I noticed the yellow tube from the fuel pump to the carb looks like it has condesation in it.I never noticed this last year.
The engine seems to run fine but i'm wondering if the fuel pump is getting ready to fail. If i remember this hose was dry all last season.

Is it water, or gas? Can you drain it and check? Could be just water from sitting all winter.

Checked it again today after the boat has set a couple days...Now its dry.I bet it was gas to evaporate that fast.
