Cadlights artisans II 125g cracked it pulling it out of my truck obviously any crack will ruin the structure and there’s no guarantee on it holding water now. One friend told me he would worry too much since it has a floating bottom but just curious on people’s opinions

I would be worried...I recommend not using it since it may have the chance to leak. Maybe if it is not as bad as it looks you could silicone around it to help add some strength?
 
Does the chip go all the way through? If not it wouldn't be pretty bit you could try to reinforce the area by siliconing in some glass patches (kind of like eurobracing)
 
I'd try to find another piece of glass that fits in the crack/hole and use a ton of silicon to fill it in. I dont think you would have an issue.
