Half true.
I'm in a "holiday apartment" so I doubt the kettle was well made: it was intended to make the odd cup of strawberry fragranced German
Tea?

What's tha mean "half true"?
Was it working when you arrived, and did you not, since arriving there, use said kettle on more than one occasion. During which time you had no cause for complaint?
Strawberry fragranced tea!
You could plead justifiable, possibly getting off with a light sentence, 21 watt. Or that the kettle had been subjected to inhuman treatment, boiling the water for such stuff.
Half decent replacement should be around €15 though.

I'm not schlepping a deceased kettle 30k to pitch it in the river.

You don't "pitch in the river", you place on board a small ship, set the ship alight and let it go with the flow.
Can you dig a hole in the garden, during the night, and bury it there?

You want me to carry a ship as well?

It's a river, there's bound to be a suitable one you could use.
At a push, a plank with kindling placed around the kettle. A miniature, floating bonfire if you like.

He could probably get "one or two" off one of those. The fire would probably be an insurance claim, possible dodgy kettle to blame.
It might just work, and he'd have a spare to boot.
That'd be Ken Richmond!

Sirrah, your mind works in devious ways.
The cruise boats don't generally pass here though, so I'd have to hurl the kettle onto a passing cargo boat, and I'm not sure they'd like that.

How'd you mean?
Rhine cruise boats don't use the Rhine, unbelievable.
How far can you Wang the kettle then!

There's quite a lot of Rhine, and they tend to stay in the more dramatic bits like the gorge just south of Koblenz (where the pic above was taken I think: I recognise the castle)
Good question. Lemme know if you see it in a couple of minutes.
