Smooth hits of the 70’s and a fair amount of one hit wonders. For example, Looking Glass with “Brandy” and other songs you know if you were born pre 1969 or so. Hall and Oates, Christopher Cross, The Piña Colada song, etc.

Would Air Supply qualify? Also Starbuck's "Moonlight Feels Right," which actually describes activities aboard a yacht, IIRC.

As soon as I read the term “Yacht Rock” I thought of Christopher Cross. and those two stupid songs once banished from my head are there again.

Cross hit the mailbox money jackpot with Sailing and Run Like the Wind.

Both horrible songs.

Charlene Oliver's unforgettable "I've Never Been To Me" also describes at least one activity on a yacht.

I can't picture any actual yachtsman playing it on his yacht's eight-track, though.
