Can I use TruFuel for a 2-stroke Mariner 3.3HP outboard?

I am picking up an used Mariner 3.3 outboard engine. It is 2 stroke so I was wondering if I could use pre-mixed 50:1 TruFuel to run it? I do not do a lot of trips a year so I am not concerned about the cost. If TruFuel is good to use with outboards, the convenience (ethanol free, premixed with oil, availability at local hardware store) is more important to me than the $20/gallon price tag.
 
Thanks.

So I guess I need to mix my own unless there is something that's ready to use for water cooled outboards? I have a bottle of Pennzoil Marine Premium TC-W3 oil so I can mix my own. Just need to drive to a marina to get some ethanol free gas. Anything else I would need? Should I use fuel stabilizer? If yes, any particular type? I have two cans of Seafoam and a small bottle of fuel stabilizer that I use for my lawnmower (4-stroke).
