I honestly can't see this as being anything more than something related to utilities based on their placement. It's too awkward of a space for another bridge or for themeing elements imo.

Maybe it is for water cannons like Maverick? Maverick's I'm pretty sure are below the water line, but with boat traffic, it's probably best to mount those on concrete pads on concrete piers--or perhaps wooden piles driven into the lake bed.
Well, I didn't really want to share everything I know, but since you've basically figured it out... the water blasters on Pompeii have been so successful that the park is mounting 40 more of them on concrete pads in the Rhine.

For a dollar, you can launch a few gallons of laminar liquid misery at your choice of either the new coaster or a Rhine cruise boat.

With pedestrian access being a bit of an issue down there, the customer-facing money eater/big-red-button portions of the system will be located exclusively in sky ride buckets and on the far right-hand seats of the train.

Proceeds from the water blasters will fund replacement headsets for Eire in perpetuity.
 
What about a fireworks launchpad? could be a lot but given recent history justified?
You might be on to something but I would think putting it on the other side on the train bridge in the wider part of the Rhine would make more sence.

Hmm.... interesting. Kinda like this?

"Hey kids, here comes the 30 second or so skyride crossing of the Rhine... Look way over there. See Madrid? Make your dollar count! Ready.... fire!"

I'd gladly sink hundreds into the blasters if some of them were aimed at Verbolten. ?

Paying money to essentially rain on an attraction built to endure typical precipitation is an interesting way to let out anger from a personal vendetta.

I'm sure you can find better ways to rain on its parade other than literal rain. Back to the drawing board with you.

Hey, it has an outdoor section. That's its weak spot. So long as the water from the blasters helps wear it down further and the funds they raise from me do not go to the "ride's" maintenance, I can reach my goal. If not, then back to the drawing board for me, it's time to build a rogue deer robot.

I'd rather not have Madrid get water blasted and prematurely worn out. On second thought, if it won't be a 315-foot inverted wooden AquaTrax, maybe the blasters are the next best thing.

Maybe this is it.

A mooring Station for the Rhine River Boats for Fireworks Viewing or those special cruises where there is Beverage Service. Or possibly for Off Season Storage that is closer and the boats can be monitored instead of that round the way place out of easy observation.

"A mooring refers to any permanent structure to which a vessel may be secured. Examples include quays, wharfs, jetties, piers, anchor buoys, and mooring buoys. A ship is secured to a mooring to forestall free movement of the ship on the water." Credit goes to Wikipedia for the definiton

Just my thoughts.
