Various quasilocal proposals have been made, however the center-of-mass moment (COM) has generally been overlooked. Asymptotically flat graviating systems have 10 total conserved quantities associated with the Poincar{é} symmetry at infinity. In addition to energy-momentum and angular momentum (associated with translations and rotations) there is the boost quantity: the COM. A complete quasilocal formulation should include this quantity. Getting good values for the COM is a fairly strict requirement, imposing the most restrictive fall off conditions on the variables. We take a covariant Hamiltonian approach, associating Hamiltonian boundary terms with quasilocal quantities and boundary conditions. Unlike several others, our {\it covariant symplectic} quasilocal expressions do have the proper asymptotic form for all 10 quantities.4 pages, contribution to the 6th International Conference of Gravitation and Astrophysics, Seoul, 2003 (revised version)General Relativity and Quantum CosmologyQuasilocal Center-of-Masstext
