Best overlap: 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM in Boston is 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM in Panama City.
If you set up a recurring sync, 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM in Boston (8:00 AM to 5:00 PM in Panama City) is the natural home for it. With 9 hours of daily overlap, these two cities are an easy pairing; almost any reasonable hour works. These times hold for most of the year, but Boston's daylight saving (which Panama City doesn't use) shifts them by an hour twice annually.
