French term or phrase: appendices
Avec moins de 8 tonnes sur la balance, un gréement, des appendices, un plan de pont et l’accastillage neufs, le bateau cherche désormais des sponsors complémentaires en vue de la prochaine Route du Café.

I'm looking for confirmation that "appendices" is the same in English (an explanation of what they actually are would also be much appréciated).

Many thanks in advance

appendages
Explanation:
Type d’appendice :
(quille longue, fin keel, fin bulb keel, dérive, mixte…)
http://www.museemaritimelarochelle.fr/fotos-yachts/agrement....

appendage
A fin—the centerboard, keel, rudder, or skeg—under the boat that helps with steering and provides lateral resistance (and provides ballast, in the case of the keel). Most keels and skegs are fixed in place, while centerboards are retractable and rudders turn. Appendages usually have foil shapes to improve the flow of water around them and to provide lift.
