Incident Overview
During the arrival, the pilot received information from a departing aircraft that there was a 10 to 15 knot crosswind favoring runway 23. The pilot executed a go-around on the first approach because the aircraft was too high. On the second attempt to land, the aircraft was floating, prompting another go-around.
Third Approach and Landing
On the third approach, the aircraft touched down approximately 400 feet down the 2,400-foot runway. When the pilot applied the brakes, the aircraft veered to the left. The pilot then eased up on the left brake to maintain directional control, but the aircraft subsequently ran off the end of the runway.
Post-Excursion Events
After departing the runway, the aircraft encountered uneven terrain and came to rest partially submerged in salt water.
