We have analyzed the discovery images of SN 2008bk in NGC 7793 taken by Berto Monard (c.f. CBET 1315) and also images taken with the 0.41-m "PROMPT 2" telescope at CTIO on Mar 28.41 UT. Using half a dozen stars for an astrometric solution, we derive the following precise position for the SN: R. A. = 23h57m50s.42 Decl. = -32d33'21".5 (equinox 2000.0) which is 9".2 east and 126".4 north of the nucleus of NGC 7793.
