yeah, I get that The Eagles are not technically yacht rock, despite featuring in the original video series and "I Can't Tell You Why" appearing on many yacht playlists. nor are Fleetwood Mac or most of Steely Dan's songs (unless Michael McDonald is in da house).but the success of their West Coast soft rock hits and the slickness of their productions helped create the environment in which yacht rock flourished, so think of them as fertilizer if that helps.

My favorite contemporary soft rock pastiche is "You Can Feel It" by Young Gun Silver Fox

Wings' London Town isn't considered "yacht rock" but I just found out a lot of it was actually recorded on a yacht.
