0:00ocean birds distant land This vertical video opens with a wide shot of a vast, sparkling blue ocean under a bright, clear sky. Numerous white seagulls gracefully fly across the top of the frame, their wings catching the sunlight. The ocean surface is choppy with small waves, reflecting the sun in myriad glints, creating a dynamic, shimmering texture. In the far distance, a faint coastline with what appears to be buildings or structures is visible under a light blue haze, suggesting a city or port. The overall color palette is dominated by blues and whites, with touches of light gray and brown in the distant landmass. A white text overlay at the bottom reads: "Well I was setting up for my last race with the team."

The background is slightly blurred but appears to be an indoor setting with a large window letting in natural light on the right, and a warm, wooden wall or ceiling on the left. The lighting is soft and even, highlighting his face. He maintains eye contact and gestures subtly with his hands while talking. His expression is serious but engaging. White text overlays appear throughout, providing context to his speech, for example, "You know the deal had been done," then "the contract had been signed," and later "Money had been sent." concluding with "and it was like okay Cadiz is your last event."

0:22man talking to team over shoulder This scene employs an over-the-shoulder shot, looking past the back of a seated person towards the man speaking, who is the same individual from the previous scenes. He stands facing away from the camera, addressing two individuals. One is a woman standing to his right, listening intently, and the other is a man seated in the foreground, facing away from the camera. The background is a plain, dark gray or black fabric wall, creating a simple, focused setting. The lighting is bright and soft. The man speaking gestures with his hands while holding a smartphone.

Some wear baseball caps. The dock extends into the frame, leading the eye towards the background.
