Narrative:
On VOR a to M99, circling approach to runway 17. Landed within 400 ft of runway 17 numbers. Applied brakes, did not hold, plane slowed to 40-50 KTS, then started sliding either way, went through runway end and fence approximately 20-30 KT. Did not feel that I had enough runway left to gain enough speed for go around, after plane brakes stopped holding. Callback conversation with reporter revealed the following information: reporter stated that he landed long with extra speed in rain and the aircraft hydroplaned off the end of the runway and through a fence. The FAA classified the occurrence as an incident since there was only damage to the nose gear and propellers. Cessna 310.
