Narrative:
On final to runway 27 bos, I commanded a go around due to traffic on the runway. Executed the go around at 100 ft or below. During the go around I saw a departing jet off runway 22R. Both aircraft were in conflict with each other so I took control of the aircraft and descended from 500 ft to about 400 ft to avoid the other aircraft. Then continued the go around and we made a second approach to runway 27.
