What happened
The pilot in command (PIC) elected to land on Runway 01 after overflying the airport to evaluate local conditions. The wind was estimated from 330 degrees at 15 knots with gusts to 20 knots. On final approach with flaps fully extended, the PIC observed that the wind had changed from a left to right crosswind. The PIC reduced power under direction of the safety pilot and the aircraft bounced hard on its nose gear. The PIC lost control of the aircraft and the safety pilot, the spouse of the PIC, took control of the aircraft. The safety pilot reported that the aircraft continued to drift left off the runway. He stated that his seat was in a rearward position and after he applied full power in an attempt at going around he was unable to reach the rudder pedals. The aircraft veered off the runway and the safety pilot aborted the attempted go around. The aircraft collided with a fence and came to a stop in a parking lot 150 yards from the runway.
Findings
The crosswind landing was complicated by gusty conditions and a shift in wind direction. The safety pilot's seat position prevented effective control input during the critical go-around phase.
