Default long time to crank

After not running for several weeks, my Yamaha 90 hp 2 cycle needs to
crank for a seriously long time before she catches and begins to
start. I believe (but am not sure) that the reason is that my fuel
hose is about 15' long and even though I squeeze the primer bulb, all
this does is compress air and pushes fuel near the fuel pump. Somehow
fuel takes a lot of cranking to reach the fuel pump. If I run her a
lot, I do not have this problem. Thoughts?
