I prefer to keep a boat hooked up to dockside water rather than taking it out of the tank. Yes, it does keep the water in the tank fresher, but I usually dump the water in the tanks fairly often anyways. I don't like the pressure change when running off of the water pump (when it cycles on and off) in most boats as well as the noise of the water pump. I find it easy to put a pressure regulator on the hose fitting on the dock (although most yachts have them built in at the dockside water hose connection), I also find it easy to just shut the water off everyday when leaving the boat. If you leave the breaker on for the water pump, it will automatically come on when the dockside water pressure drops enough and you won't end up with a burnt hot water element.
