Yacht Rock is a relatively new genre of music which has elements of Tropical Rock and Adult-Oriented Rock. I just like to call it Boat Rock!
There are some songs that make a day out on the water even better. Be it a hard driving song to start your day like “All Summer Long”, or a smooth guitar ballad like “Tequila Sunrise” for the cruise back to the dock.
I have compiled a list of ReelBoating favorite songs to play while on the boat. They are songs about boats, and about the outdoor lifestyle of sun, sand, and surf. Here they are, hope some of them are your favorites. Let us know yours on the ReelBoating Forum below.
