In Over Heaven it's explained that Erina pulled DIO into the coffin while he was unconscious with her because she felt bad leaving her husband's body on the ship. When they reached shore, she pushes the coffin back into the sea in hopes that DIO could come back as a good person. Of course this novel wasn't written by Araki so you don't have to accept is as cannon (even in the novel DIO explains that since he was unconscious his memory of it's hazy).
