Default Advice on trailerable cruiser to buy.

I have a question about the amount of HP needed for the MacGregor 26. I
understand that to empty the water ballast while under way one has to be
moving faster than hull speed. How did that work out with that 8 HP? I
know the company recommends a 50 HP but I'm wondering if 20 HP would be
reasonable and more economical than the 50. I don't need to go 100 mph but
10 would be nice. Asking the company I got some fuzzy answers.
