So, my number 4 (and BOSS number 47) is now official!

The new SN is a reddened type II a days after discovery (the exact type of Type II hasn't been published yet, ie..P,n) and I haven't imaged it since discovery due to wind and/or clouds, so I can only assume that at the moment it brightness is somewhere around magnitude 17.
Waiting for clear skies to get a much better image than my last 2 at the time of my discovery.
