Even in a very large scope, well defined spiral structure is elusive. My last observation was through a 30" near Coonabarabran, though I was really examining the galaxy for HII knots.
At 264x, I primarily scanned NGC 6744 looking for very small HII regions. The offsets stated here are relative to a very small bright nucleus, which was sharply concentrated within the core. A non-stellar knot was noted 2.5' NW of the nucleus. A second knot was seen 2.9' ESE of the nucleus and a third was just 1.6' NE of center. Roughly a dozen "stars" are superimposed on the galaxy and some of the fainter ones may be stellar HII knots. Spiral structure was too subtle to see any definite arms.

IC 4823, located 18' southeast of NGC 6744, is an interesting galaxy -- resolved as a double at 264x.
Fairly faint, moderately large,, elongated 3:2 SW-NE, 45"x30", relatively low even surface brightness. Forms a double with PGC 62891 barely off the southwest end [27" between centers]. The small companion is very faint, extremely small, round, 10" diameter. On first glance this double system could be mistaken for a single elongated oval as they seem to have a common envelope 1.1'x0.6'. Located 18' SE of NGC 6744 and 8.5' SW of mag 8.0 HD 178534.
