Develop: What's the fuel consumption of a 50HP outboard motor?

Most popular runabout boat plans in product:
Question by Tahini Classic: What's the fuel consumption of a 50HP outboard motor?
I'm planning to commute 8 miles every way each day by boat, and have placed a bid in an auction on a runabout with a 50HP Mercury outboard, two-stroke.
It is a planing hull with a windscreen, 5 metres long, and I suppose I wouldn't go full-throttle, just adequate to go into planing mode, and then cruise along like that.
The boat comes with a 20L (five gallon) tank.
