I'm working on some rowboats with bow chasers for my upcoming Wooden Wars battle "Take the shore Battery" Napoleonic scenario, and was wondering if these boat types have an official name?

I believe they were called "rowboats with bow chasers".

Depends on size – yours look like they could be ships' longboats
