In northern MN the docks are hinged near shore, and during the winter lifted out of the water via a cable and pully system. Since you have such a difference in the tide, maybe a modified version of that idea would work. On my friends docks, the dock is supported by steel poles that attached to old automotive wheels. They act as the feet.
Would it be possible to have a floating dock, using the floating methods that you described, but use the same time of "feet" as some of the docks I have seen. Meaning, you could build a framework uder the floating part, and have sleeves slide over the poles. I hope I am making some sense here. That would allow the dock to raise and lower.
