During a previous outburst of V591 Cen, Berto Monard measured its position as 
(2000) 12:42:17.95 -33:34:07.1        Date: 2006.12.01

Back then this put the CV 2.3" N and 2.2" W of a field star in UCAC2, at
(2000) 12:42:18.12 -33:34:09.4

There is excellent agreement between the astrometric positions.
