Narrative:The pilot reported that before the landing flare, the airplane drifted left of the runway centerline. He pilot stated , 'Full control input could not overcome the crosswind and the pilot decided to initiate a go-around.' He reported that he glanced at the wind sock, and estimated the crosswind to be over 20 knots. The pilot stated that the aircraft bounced twice on the runway, and he was approximately 3/4 down the runway when he decided that he would not be able to clear the twenty foot obstacle at the end of the runway. The pilot stated that he pulled all power and attempted to stop the airplane prior to the end of the runway. According to the pilot, the airplane overran the departure end of the runway and rolled into a ditch that was filled with brush and water. A witness to the accident stated that the airplane landed approximately halfway down the runway and estimated that there were tire skid marks starting 60 to 70 feet from the departure end of the runway.
Probable Cause: The pilot's misjudgment of speed and distance and his failure to execute a go-around. A related factor was the crosswind.
