A charter boat carrying dozens of passengers including children has been stranded off Point Walter Reserve after reportedly running out of fuel.

Water Police received reports of a vessel running out of fuel and at anchor in the affluent riverside suburb of Bicton about 3pm on Wednesday.

A large number of people can be seen standing on the deck at the back of the stranded vessel, with several appearing to capture the bizarre incident with their mobile phones.

A WA Police spokesperson said they were unable to provide further details, other than to confirm a marine crew was responding.

It is not believed there have been any reports of injuries.

BlueSun2 Charters’ website states the High Roller is known for its “relaxing vibe and laid back crew”.

“This is definitely one of the more fun boats for hire on Perth waters,” it reads.

“This vessel has a great specious deck, prefect for a party.”

The West *********** has contacted BlueSun2 Charters for comment.
