Yacht rock is recreational upper crust soft rock, mid 70s-mid 80's mostly, with a rich-hippie bent In other words, if you're sitting on your ass on a boat, beach or cabana listen to puss music, what's the best kind?

I gotta go with any number of Seals & Crofts albums. Maybe Dr. Hook.

Though, on the high end, the end that's actually worthwhile, you could tack on Steely Dan and Cat Stevens.
