Jack Tar (also Jacktar, Jack-tar or Tar) was a common English term originally used to refer to seamen of the Merchant or Royal Navy, particularly during the period of the British Empire. By World War I the term was used as a nickname for those in the U.S. Navy.[1] Both members of the public, and seafarers themselves, made use of the name in identifying those who went to sea. It was not used as an offensive term and sailors were happy to use the term to label themselves.[2]

Denis...I think... Heather = Erica, minus 'ic' (not in charge)
Beauty is in the eye of the beerholder.

Good teamwork boys!  Sounds like the Belt should go to Canada while some of the bling is scattered across the antipodes, but I'll leave you to negotiate... ===[**WCF**]=== You can blame Soot for the clue, prompted by one of his roundabout puzzles, and of course Denis and Cheryl for their recent foreign language forays.

Saw this in an English publication so would be interested in comments about its legality!
Confirm or 'esitate (4)

This looks like a not quite double def, with ' indicating that we have to drop the first letter of the synonym for hesitation: if so that seems legal to me. However, if there is something more Denisish (= devious ) going on, perhaps not... On the above premise, my guess is back = confirm, with (a)back = 'esitation.

Following your line of thought Lex another possibility would be (w)aver 
Sometimes lost is where you need to be. Just because you don't know your direction doesn't mean you don't have one.
