Yacht Rock is not a genre. It didn't exist at the time this music was made, and there are no agreed upon boundaries.

It's an ex post facto category.

Doo Wop was a post-genre name as well. They were “vocal groups” until the record collectors went looking for them and listing them in the 60s.

Northern Soul as well (a British term for the 60s “not-Motown” soul records being played years later at all night uppers-fueled dance parties in Northern England.
