A floating dock retention device. A flexible tether is adapted to retain a floating section to an adjacent structure, with a length defined between first and second positions along the flexible tether. A first clamp is affixed at the first position of the flexible tether, and a second clamp is affixed at the second position of the flexible tether. A drawbar spring with first and second ends is affixed to the first clamp at the first end and to the second clamp at the second end. The drawbar spring has a longer length when the drawbar spring is in a limit of its tension, and a shorter length when the drawbar spring is in a resting position. The longer length is no longer than the length between the first and second positions of the flexible tether, and the shorter length produces slack in the length between the first and second positions of the flexible tether.
