Take a glass and turn it upside down, lower it in to the bath, a sink or bowl and note the trapped air, it is the same mechanism.

Air is lighter than water so wants to go upwards (actually the water wants to go downwards and pushes the air up but the net effect is the same). the glass/ship stops it from doing that
