Are you where there are freezing temps when the boat is stored ? If so those holes will at least act as drains maybe a few a bit more larger with small screens. You don't want the wet coring material to freeze and expand blowing the outside glass/gel apart.......look close to see if that has taken place already.
I have seen them remove and replace wet soaked foam core in skegs/keels for that very reason, they bleed in the spring after the freeze thaw cycle. It can be vacuum dried as well if they have the proper equipment.
