The invention discloses a hovercraft using distributed duct fans. The hovercraft comprises a hovercraft body, and a thrust supply device and a lift force supply device that are arranged on the hovercraft body, wherein the lift force supply device comprises a hover-skirt arranged along the circumferential direction of the hovercraft body; the hover-skirt is internally provided with a plurality of air storage chambers; a distance piece is arranged between every two adjacent air storage chambers, so that the air storage chambers are independent; and one duct fan for supplying air to one air storage chamber is arranged on the air storage chamber correspondingly. When the hovercraft using the distributed duct fans come across an obstacle or an acute object and a part of air storage chambers become useless, the hovercraft can still run stably.
