He must have had more than 1 tank as I believe the newer Merc. 4-stroke 40HP gets 10mpg at 20mph and we assume he traveled at least between 100-110 miles meaning he needed a minimum of two 6-gallon tanks (not using the 1/3 rule, lol) Must have been a hell of a ride for 5-6 hours.

The engine is impressively efficient at 3500 rpm, but not sufficiently so to make the trip on a single tank.
