Im considering a Glad as my next boat. does it have any storage?

Underneath the bow is all open and plenty of storage. In the cockpit there isn't much but under the back seat and small side zipper pouches.

can you get in there and crawl around? is it finished or raw?

You can totally get in the bow and move around. There is a main area before the first bulkhead that is pretty good size and depending on the boat some of them were finished in that area. Plenty of room for bags, anchor and line, bumpers, stow props, etc.

awesome..I didnt know this.

we used to "soft pack" and carry a lot up front it's easy to get through the hatch on the forward deck, that is where the anchor is also stored...!!!!

thanks but that doesnt look too big. the most i would carry would be a nice sized soft ice chest, bumpers, anchor, cover, a bag with towels and a bag for the woman.

am i asking for too much?

That bulkhead in the pic is right behind the dash. It is all open and plenty of storage up there. We had fender holders, anchor holder and a big box bolted to the center stringer that you could put alot in. You can put bags up front or under the back seat. You'll love a Gladiator. We have pondered buying another one!

ive always loved the lines without the rail but thought it lacked storage. Im been toying the idea of getting a tiger or keeping my Baja and get a Gladiator. how is insurance with 525?

You have plenty of room to carry everything you described..I use mine basically for all of the above..You can crawl around inside and do anything you want..Plenty of room up front..Along with under the seats and the side pockets, you have alot of storage..

Some are finished and some are Raw..
