Hi Scott,

They are both a bit low in the sky this time of year. I am in Burnie but have dark skies to the South but my house gets in the way and 47 Tuc is not visible until about 3am when it is easily seen naked eye. Tarantula is visible here early in the night, however 47 Tuc starts getting higher about midnight whereas the Tarantula although it starts higher is sinking until about 4am so you might find it difficult to pick up if you have much light pollution or obstruction to the South.
