I don't think svn+ssh is a supported access method on svn.boost.org.

See http://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/wiki/BoostSubversion

Can you do https?  If so you can ask for developer access and then use the
URL https://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/.  I think there may be work underway to
get anonymous access over https as well.  This would be great for folks
behind proxy servers.
