Default Leaking Porthole

Towards the end of our last trip we noted that the top of a cabinet had a
water stain on it. After much lookng I determined that the water was
leaking through the cored cabintop thru a screw hole onto the cabinet.
Today I pulled out a suspect porthole and found a chip missing from the
epoxy that seals the coring and this was letting water seep in.

It's fairly obvious that the coring is soaked. How do I go about drying
this out before sealing the leak and replacing porthole?
