Welcome, I too am new to the v20's. But not new to boating. Any time you go offshore you need to be prepared for what may happen. What kind of safety devices will you have on hand? Radio? PFD's? Raft? PLB? Follower boat? I think you can safely go as far as 1/3 your fuel. Any more then that is a risk. Do not forget to bring rations!
Of course that is if your engine is in good condition and runs well.
