Loose Stantions

As a first-time buyer, I'm trying to edumacate myself on things to look for when I inspect a used boat.

Just looked at one yesterday (late 70s boat) whose stantions were very loose. The decks all felt solid, and otherwise the boat seemed in very good shape for it's age (there was some "waviness" in the gelcoat, but it didn't seem a problem to my untrained eyes) . Just wondering if I'd need to be replacing those stations, or if there is a simple fix... OR is this a terrible sign of some unseen problems??
