Thanks! I was out last night and had no difficulty seeing the comet in my 11x56 binoculars, but I wasn't aware it was that close to something else of interest.

BTW I assuming that "V" Hydrae is HIP53085, right? I didn't notice it, but then again I was so fixed on catching Boattini, that I wasn't looking at anything else! Cloudy tonight

, but if it clears a bit tomorrow night, it will still only be 1.4° away and close enough to catch in my big binoculars...
