If the term itself is actually used, it should be split from that of the Channel 101 show. In other words, have one section for the term itself, then below, cite the Channel 101 show.
Although I am well aware that the entire "Yacht Rock" was done "tongue-in-cheek," I think we all have a responsibility to keep this 'pedia as professional as possible. In the future, it would be appreciated if those of you responsible would refrain from using the word "brainfart." Thank you.
I am willing to write a seperate article for the show. I just need a show of proverbal hands. Yanksox 20:29, 16 May 2006 (UTC)
I love the show, but the term really existed before the show. It might be more common usage, but the term was alone when it existed. Yanksox 23:25, 16 May 2006 (UTC)
- this convo took place in 2006, but there really does need to be a separate article, regardless of whether the term was popularized by the show or not. the "yacht rock" sound has been trending in the indie music community for at least a year or two now, especially in the "chillwave" genre (ugh), and recent albums by relevant acts like Bon Iver, Destroyer, and m83 have at least a couple of obvious nods to the sound. all i'm saying is that it's become relevant enough now to warrant it's own article if someone more knowledgeable than myself is willing to write one. -- hacker_jerkoff 9:33, 2 March 2012 (UTC)
Just sort of a post-AfD addendum - please resist the urge to split the show and the genre into separate articles. The AfD (linked at the top of the page) came about largely because the two concepts (at the moment) aren't necessarily notable enough to survive on their own.
If a separation is desired in the future, let's be sure to have an open discussion about it beforehand, just to avoid what happened here. -- ChrisB 22:23, 6 June 2006 (UTC)
For future reference, here's the list of sources that JD Ryznar provided during the AfD process:

Above, it was proposed that the article be split, but it seems to me that there is no particular need for an article about "Yacht rock" as its own musical genre at all. Yacht rock doesn't really exist as a genre, and can, in fact, be expanded by the creators of the series to include just about anything they want to include - as they've done by including a Van Halen song. It seems to me we should really have an article Yacht Rock, about the series, and discuss the music in context of the series, rather than vice versa. john k 18:49, 5 October 2006 (UTC)
Does the "Gino (the Manager)" episode have anything to do with Hall & Oates? It has the same name as a song from their Self Titled 1975 album. Should that be mentioned on the page? Also "Gino" is Tommy Mottola.
Image:FullSail.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. BetacommandBot 13:01, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
The result of the proposal was move the page, per the discussion below. Dekimasu よ! 07:41, 26 July 2007 (UTC)
Yacht rock → Yacht Rock (formerly the latter was redirected to the former; it should be the other way around. In truth, the former entry should be about the subgenre of rock music that is highlighted in the latter title). - SidP 12:03, 20 July 2007 (UTC)
Now that the episode is online, I've added the pertinent information (and reverted a very strange entry). Any Yacht Rock fans willing to spot-check the changes, and maybe fix the wording a bit? Squaretex ( talk) 04:57, 29 January 2008 (UTC)
Would anyone mind if I added a Yacht Rock listing in chronological order as well as a more detailed breakdown of the narrative of the show? Several of the longer running plot-lines have been ignored in the writing of the article - as part of Yacht Rock's charm is that when watched in order, the whole becomes far more than the sum of it's parts. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 138.40.48.96 ( talk) 17:00, 8 February 2008 (UTC)
If anyone wants to add information from http://asap.ap.org/stories/276586.s#, feel free. I don't have time to put it in right now, though I did add a new artist acknowledgment section. ZeaLitY [ DREAM - REFLECT ] 23:18, 7 March 2009 (UTC)
'The "Yacht rock" name for the soft rock format that peaked in popularity between the years of 1975 and 1984.'
I'm not sure what the line is trying to say.

Back in 2005, the article " yacht rock" was created, determined to be a WP:Neologism, and refactored into this article about the show; then again created as a separate article in 2006, and deleted as a WP:Neologism, redirected back to this article. A user has now split the "yacht rock" term into a separate article again; I've nominated it for deletion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Yacht rock (2nd nomination). -- Closeapple ( talk) 07:24, 22 September 2016 (UTC)
I'd like to add to the section about the Yacht Rock station on Sirius XM. I feel that it's worth noting that the creators of the Yacht Rock series often take issue with Sirius XM for including so much "Nyacht" on their playlist. The Yacht Rock station on Sirius XM typically plays more soft adult contemporary and folk music than actual Yacht Rock. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Conorsseur ( talk • contribs) 05:40, 21 September 2018 (UTC)
