Why wouldn’t you want water in the canal?
If you are in a boat going down the canal the water from the drainpipe can spill onto your head and/or genitals.
Maybe it’s just a strange angle on that photo, but I struggle to imagine how someone could fit a boat under the section of bridge where that pipe comes down!
The angle in this photo is indeed odd, but also the only time I ever taken a boat on the Binnendieze was in a fairly small boat with only a few other tourists and a guide. I might misremember, because it has been a few years, but there were some moments we had to mind our heads.
The world would be a little better with more whimsy.

I have to visit. Luckily I’m only a few hours away, yeah!
