Southernmost Messier object?

Hi all
A calm night in Christchurch with clear Southern skies and 10min to spare with the binos. Easy views of Triffid and Lagoon nebulae and M7. Also found IC2944 in Centaurus. Which got me wondering - what is the southernmost Messier object - since IC2944 is as bright as the others?
