In over 50yrs in the yachting industry I've learned that every part of a boat's rigging, from the wires to the turnbuckles, has a finite lifespan. For optimal safety and maintenance, it's essential to address the entire system at once.
In this instance I'd say the stays have been replaced at least a couple of times using the old turnbuckles.
