Like a few have said here, I would try and avoid Hawaii, unless you have some specific goal there. If you want to try something different give the Midway islands a visit, they really are something to behold, at that not many people tend to visit there, it's rather a unique place to visit.
The trip across the Pacific if you are going to leave in June or so, shouldn't be too bad, but be very sure to get the long range weather forecast before you get south of Hawaii, there are so many places you can visit, also duck and hide from the weather should you need to.
Make sure you don't miss visiting Tahiti, there is some really great cruising round there. Usually there are quite a few cruisers in Papeete to talk to, some heading north others south, but it's a place many people stop through it's always great to find out others experiences, it will give you ideas for other places to visit.
