There seem to be a million legacy USB-A outlets made for marine applications, and a bunch of USB-C car chargers for automotive/consumer markets (like this one), but I cant find a decent 12/24v marine USB-C marine outlet. Is the marine industry that far behind the times?

Apart from just being a newer standard, USB-C has a lot of benefits such as the ability to supply much more power (upto 100w vs 7.5w for older USB or 18w with QC), faster and smarter charging via the new USB-PD (power delivery standard), whiich makes it dead simple to charge or power phones, tablets, laptops, and portable power banks directly off of DC without needing to use an inverter or a cigarette lighter style external power brick style adapter.

I really want this product to exist, I have found one questionable amazon product from an unknown off-brand that seems to check all the boxes, but details are lacking, and I would much prefer buying from a known brand or at the very least a reputable retailer.
