Hey just bought a Herman Boro designed 38 foot albatross bilge keel.

Just wanted to see if anyone out there is familiar with these at all.

Bilge keel, designer called Herman:- sounds like she is a German design. I can just see her dodging the North Sea sandbanks with Erskine Childers in "The Riddle of the Sands" .

Don't have a photo yet but I'll upload when I have.

I can can find a few Boro yachts on line but none of the albatross design or ketch in 38 foot.

Seems to be several 40 and 44 foot Boro Albatrosses about. Not seen one at 38 feet yet. See if you can find one of those magazines of Boro designs that used to be cluttering up newstands years ago.
