Except those are two significantly different vehicles. Fan boats are simply boats built for shallow water and powered by airplane-like propellers. Hovercraft also blow air downwards to create an air cushion (typically with a rubber skirt to hold the air in), meaning that they ride above the water (and can travel on land as long as it's reasonably smooth).


 
One could certainly build either one of those with technology established to exist in Equestria, perhaps with a scaled-up version of Tank's propeller.
