The '''Hover Craft''', also spelled '''Hovercraft''', is one of four vehicles that [[Funky Kong]] leases during the events of ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'' It is a step up from the [[Motor Boat]], in that it's slightly faster, and more importantly, can drive over rocks in the water. 

Funky Kong is unable to build the Hover Craft due to a hole in one of the parts. If [[Dixie Kong|Dixie]] and [[Kiddy Kong]] manage to defeat [[Arich]] in [[Kremwood Forest]], the spider drops a [[Patch (item)|Patch]]. By taking this Patch to Funky, he is able to fix up the Hover Craft and allow the [[Kong]]s to use it for their journey, mainly enabling them to reach [[Cotton-Top Cove]] and [[Mekanos]].

Once the Kongs recover the [[Ski]]s from the bosses of Cotton-Top Cove and Mekanos, Funky uses them to build the [[Turbo Ski]], which can travel up waterfalls, and serves as the Hover Craft's replacement from thereon out.

In the [[Game Boy Advance]] [[remake]] of ''Donkey Kong Country 3'', the Hover Craft is also used in Funky's Protect [[minigame]], where Dixie or Kiddy must prevent [[Kremling]]s from kidnapping members of the Kong family in the middle of a lake.

In the true ending of ''Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!'', a brief scene of [[King K. Rool|Baron K. Roolenstein]] trying to flee in his own Hover Craft, identical to the Kongs', if only slightly larger, will be shown.

Artwork of Dixie Kong and Kiddy Kong in the Hover Craft appears on a [[Spirit (Super Smash Bros. Ultimate)|Spirit]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''.

The Hover Craft is an upgrade over the [[Motor Boat]], being able to move on water faster and travel over rocks. The Hover Craft is not available to use at first because there is a hole in its tube that Funky can only fix with a [[patch (item)|patch]], and the Hover Craft becomes available to use after giving the Patch to Funky. The Hover Craft is required to access the worlds [[Cotton Top Cove]] and [[Mekanos]], the [[Brothers Bear]] location [[Bramble's Bungalow]], and the [[secret cave]], "Kong Cave". The Hovercraft is used by [[King K. Rool|Baron K. Roolenstein]] in a brief scene of the true ending, where he uses it to try to escape from the [[Banana Queen]]. In the [[Donkey Kong Country 3 (Game Boy Advance)|Game Boy Advance version]], the Hover Craft is used in the "Protect" mission of the [[Funky's Rentals (minigame)|Funky's Rentals]] minigame.
