Brickipedia
“The Hovercraft is a smaller spacecraft piloted by one yellow Futuron astronaut. The ship is made up of three main segments, which can be detached from the others: the middle part which contains the cockpit, and the two wing sections. On the bottom of the middle part are four... More thrusters, and there are two more in the back.”

Futuron of my Youth
“Hovercraft is a good example of the Futuron theme; It looks more like a domed canopy to which small scooters and multiple guns have been applied. The front of the ship has six guns facing forward if you ignore that the little side pieces are actually small ships; and those... More guns are probably just running lights.”

“Single pilot spacecraft with two deployable satellites/drones. Two of the new panels in transparent blue form a wider windscreen than in Space Patroller (6830).”

About Space Futuron

Futuron was a LEGO Space line of 1987 to 1989 and the direct successor of Classic Space, with the same planet logo on its astronauts and a white and blue colour scheme with transparent yellow canopies. The minifigures wore new printed suits in four colours. Futuron arrived in the same year as Blacktron, the first space villains, and the catalogues showed the two sides racing each other.

Futuron consists of 18 sets that ran from 1987 to 1989. As of today, 6990 Monorail Transport System is the most valuable Futuron set with an estimated new/factory sealed value of $3,800.
Summary
Space Futuron Hovercraft set 6875 was released in January 1988, retailing for $15, but has since been retired. New, unopened Hovercraft sets are valued at $246, while used sets can be found for $21.
