Default optimal outboard motor size for hardshell dinghy to rescue grounded sailboat ?

For a 10 ton modified keel [cutaway forefoot] GRP sailboat, what is
suggested as a probable optimal size outboard for freeing up the
described vessel upon grounding ?

I realize all the power you can get may be a good thing, but given that
the dinghy is only about 8' long, what's realistically recommended ?

What brand ?

Appreciatively,
Courtney
