Q: What was the usual armament of a work boat converted by the C.S.A. for its "mosquito fleet"?

I don't know if this is what you are looking for but I would say an attached ram.

Nope, sorry, but good guess.

There were different mosquito fleets but if the one you are talking about is the one I am thinking of then I would say a 32-lb Smoothbore. usually just a single one.
