You must have to be going at a pretty good clip to jump the gaps in that road!

This weapons station is actually very close to where writer/director Kevin Smith grew up, and in fact the Quick Stop of Clerks fame is just a few minute drive away. Type “Quick Stop” into the local search and you’ll see it. In the film, when Dante and Randall are driving to the funeral home, you can see them drive under an overpass. That overpass is the access road to the Earle Weapons Station.

The water looks really cool at the Placemark: mouth of the river / Google Earth just to the southwest, near the beginning of the station.

The view of this weapons station through Terra Server is in black and white, but it does show three large ships docked.
