Narrative:
While landing on a 3,500-foot long wet runway with about 1,800 feet remaining, the 442-hour pilot stated that the airplane "hydroplaned on [a] slick painted surface" and he was able to maintain directional control until the airplane rolled off the end of the runway. Subsequently, the airplane struck a barbwire fence and impacted a tree. A weather observation station located six miles southwest of the accident site reported 6 minutes before the accident wind from 080 degrees at 6 knots, light rain and mist, few clouds at 800 feet, broken clouds at 2,600 feet, overcast cloud layer at 3,100 feet.

Probable Cause: The pilot's misjudgment of distance needed to land to a full stop resulting in an overrun. Contributing factors were the prevailing rain and the encounter with hydroplaning conditions.
