WHILE ATTEMPTING TO EXECUTE A GO-AROUND WITH A 90 DEGREE CROSSWIND, VELOCITY 16 KMPH, GUSTING TO 28 KMPH, THE ACFT APPARENTLY STALLED JUST AFTER BECOMING AIRBORNE. IT IMPACTED THE GROUND ABOUT 300 FEET WEST OF THE RWY. WITNESSES STATED THAT THE ACFT APPEARED TO TAKE OFF WITH FULL FLAPS EXTENDED. THE OWNER'S MANUAL DOES NOT LIST A CROSSWIND VELOCITY BUT DOES STATE THAT 15 KMPH AT 90 DEGREES IS ACCEPTABLE WITH NORMAL PILOTING TECHNIQUES.
