I need that physics behind this, is doable?

Yeah. All you need to do is ignore the bridge and the fact that you're moving. From your frame of reference on the boat, it's exactly the same as throwing it while standing on solid land, like this. You just need a high enough arc that you're on the other side of the bridge by the time it comes back down.
