That is a VERY dangerous practice on that engine, always keep them in shape to avoid major problems. Plus your milage sounds really low for that engine, you should be able to get up around 4.5 MPG with a DFI outboard. As to the original question, I wouldn't try and push it past 75-80 miles on it. Your engine at a decent cruise of around 4000 RPM's will probably burn 12 GPH, and be pushing you close to 30 MPH(roughly 2.5 MPG). Now assuming any sort of reserve in the tank that leaves you the 34 gallons useable, which yields 85 miles of range.
