The method they use at Dixie Sailing Club to moor sailboats is to attach a chain to a couple of old 18 wheeler brake drums, sink the drums where they want to moor the boat, and permanently mount a float at the top of the chain so they can just pull up and hook up.

Would think you could do the same thing with a small floating dock. When you wanted to permanently remove it, just drag the drums by the chain over to the water's edge (might require some muscle), remove the chain from the drums, and dispose of them.

Check some of the diesel repair shops for drum availability.
