Sky & Telescope has a good article and star chart for finding Comet Boattini. The comet is faint and low in the southern sky from here. As the article explains, we’ll need a dark, moonless sky and a good southern horizon to see it.
Here is a link to the article and star chart: http://www.skyandtelescope.com/community/skyblog/observingblog/19012569.html
And here’s a link to a site with the comet’s co-ordinates: http://www.cfa.harvard.edu/iau/Ephemerides/Comets/2007W1.html
Happy hunting!
