Newton's first law states that an object at rest will remain at rest unless acted on by an external force, and an object in motion continues in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an external force. A hovercraft will continue in motion until air friction (an outside force) stops it. Or if the hovercraft is no longer powered friction will stop it and it will simply float on the water (remaining at rest) once it enters a state of rest.
