I always looked at is as a symbolic crossing from one world to
another.  In many mythologies there is a boatman who takes the dead
from the land of the living to the land of the dead.  I see it like
that except it's taking Harry from the muggle world to the wizard
world.  Of course this is Harry-centric but there ya go.
