SOUTHERN Pinwheel.

Or to be more pedantic - M83!
Yeah, that's the one. Please excuse my ignorance, I didn't know nothin' 'bout no DSOs till I got my first scope just over a month ago; not about pinwheel (northern or southern), whirlpool, not even M42! I couldn't believe when I learnt you could see structure in galaxies with amateur scopes! (i.e. see more than a faint dot.)
